At 2nd level, a saurian shaman may adopt an aspect of the saurian while retaining her normal form

If I use a Totem Transformation to give myself an extra 10' of land speed and then use my wildshape to polymorph into an animal... do I get to keep that extra 10' of movement? Or does it go away when I use Wildshape?


The ability says:

This ability functions as the dragon shaman's totem transformation ability,

... which means you need to go check out the dragon shaman's ability for details.

When you do, you see the answer:
Quote:
This is a polymorph effect and cannot be used while the druid is using another polymorph effect, such as wild shape.

So the answer is no, you may not maintain the benefits while wildshaped.


The Saurian Shaman is references the Dragon Shaman. In the dragon shaman it states the following:

dragon shaman wrote:
This is a polymorph effect and cannot be used while the druid is using another polymorph effect, such as wild shape.

So no, you cannot use it during Wild Shape.

Dammit! I don't know how I missed that in the Dragon Shaman's description.

Thanks for the reply.
